Groovy Green Odds and Ends

Fall Leaves [1]

This week I have been traveling- visiting J.R. Watkins Naturals [2] in beautiful Winona, Minnesota. The leaves are flaunting some beautiful colors and the weather has been uncharacteristically warm. Rumor has it there is at least an inch of snow coming by Halloween, which is hard to imagine. There’s more to come on my trip, but for now there are a few things I wanted to share with you before the weekend kicks in.

Green Pet Care

Lisa over at Condo Blues [3] is hosting this month’s Green Moms Carnival [4]: Green Pet edition. October is National Adopt a Shelter Dog Month as well as National Pet Wellness Month so it’s the perfect time to talk about green care for our pets. You will find pet adoptions stories, green pet care tips, stories about green pet life, info on food and treats and a little green pet philosophy.  My posts, 8 Tips for Choosing Healthy Dog Food [5] and Natural Flea and Tick Prevention for Pets [6], are included.

Green Your Apple Picking

It is the perfect time of year for apple picking. I have to admit that we haven’t gone on our annual trek to the local apple orchard yet, but I’m hopeful it will happen. Over at Momtastic this week I shared 8 Ways to Green Your Apple Picking [7]. Check it out!

Project Green Challenge

This amazing mom and daughter team started Teens Turning Green and Project Green Challenge [8]. Read their inspirational story over at Healthy Child Healthy World and enter Project Green Challenge-I did [9]!
